作者简介
William Wordsworth (1770-1850), a central figure in the English Romantic movement, was an eminent poet whose work is synonymous with the love of nature and the exploration of human emotions. His magnum opus, 'The Prelude,' is an autobiographical poem that is considered one of the crowning achievements of English Romanticism. Composed over several decades, Wordsworth initially wrote it as an introduction to another of his famous works, 'The Recluse,' but 'The Prelude' ultimately emerged as a complete work in its own right. In it, Wordsworth traces his own spiritual and artistic development against the backdrop of the natural world, a motif that pervades much of his poetry. Wordsworth's literary style broke from the more formal, classical poetry of the 18th century, favoring instead a more personal and naturalistic approach. He was a proponent of using 'the language really used by men,' which he famously defined in the preface to 'Lyrical Ballads,' a collection he co-authored with Samuel Taylor Coleridge. His work often emphasized simplicity and clarity, focusing on ordinary people in rural settings, and explored themes such as transcendence, individualism, and the interconnection between nature and the human mind. Wordsworth's legacy endures not just through 'The Prelude' but also through other noted contributions, including 'Lines Composed a Few Miles above Tintern Abbey,' 'I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud,' and 'Ode: Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood.' His profound influence extends through the Victorian age to the modern era, establishing him as a towering figure of English literature.
